B) Anthropologist study how ancient cultures are similar and different There are many branches of anthropology but in general it is the study of how human culture has developed over time. Anthropologists do study ancient cultures to try and gain an understanding of the complexities and aspects of modern society. Many ancient cultures had economies, growth periods and declines with similar characteristics to more recent or even current civilizations. Thus anthropologists seek to learn from the past and have an educated commentary on where we are in the present.
